1 or 1/2 cup agave nectar,
It depends on sweetness of the fruit.
1 cup water
Ice cream machine
Bag of Ice
3-4 cups Kosher salt
extra water for the machine
How 2:
*Peel,remove seeds and chop the cantaloupe up into small pieces.
*Taste it first this can help you see if its sweet enough you may add less agave.
*Place some of the pieces into a blender, add 1/2 the water then puree.
*Add pieces little by little if you need more water add the other 1/2 this depends on the sweetness and ripeness of the cantaloupe. puree completely, place into bowl.
*Add in agave nectar a little at a time taste the sweetness, the mixture will appear like a cantaloupe syrup.
*Place in freezer to cool it for a few Min's while you set the machine up.
*I used a old style ice cream machine that why I have ice, kosher salt, and extra water in the list of things needed.
*If you are using a newer machine with a freezer base then follow the instructions of your machine you will not need the kosher salt, ice and water.
*Set up the machine according to your machines settings.
*Pour the cantaloupe mixture into the ice cream base. if you have the old style one like me put it together place salt water and ice around the base. secure and turn the machine on according to your settings.
*This takes a bit of time and again its according to the machine you use. every few Min's go check on it to see if its iced and formed the blade will appear to not turn when its set.
*when its ready pour into freezer safe containers. freeze right away for at least 5 hours.
